    Fantastic Sams Franchise Information:


    According to American Salon's Green Book, hair care is a $50+ billion industry and is expected to top $60 billion. Not only does the industry offer tremendous opportunity, it is also recession-resistant: hair keeps growing! Regardless of the economy, people continue to have their hair cut, so salon services stay in high demand all year long. It's estimated that in the next 10 years, 3.5 million additional women will start going to salons on at least a monthly basis.

    Fantastic Sams is the world's largest hair care franchise. We opened our first salon in July, 1974 and began franchising in 1976, marketing our "fixed fee" system and "no appointment necessary" concept to entrepreneurs nationwide.
